Speaker 1 (00:26):
What's Up with the Morning Show? I'm listening to some
guy from akronon where the Hell's Bill? O'Reilly? Somebody's messing
up on the board Operation one two.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
Three, Starting your morning off right, A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in this toil.
This is your morning show with Michael, Bill, John, stay lovey.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
Seven minutes after the hour. Welcome to Tuesday, February the eleventh.
You have our Lower twenty twenty five on the Aaron
streaming live on your iHeartRadio app. I'm Michael, That's Jeffrey
lyon Red's wearing red and Lieutenant Colonel is James Carafana
with the Heritage Foundation, one of the largest thing tanks
in the world. Simply put, I believe one of the
finest military and foreign policy minds in America. He's been
a partner with me on the radio for over fifteen

(01:18):
years and has never made a dime doing it. Good morning,
Lieutenant Colonel and very disappointed Kansas City Chiefs fan. Yeah,
I'm not a fan of either, but I really liked
that victory love I loved I loved Cooper dejen I mean,
on his twenty third birthday, you make it to the NFL,

(01:39):
you're a star rookie, you get a pick six and
a Super Bowl. I would have loved to have a
birthday like that. It's just a boring game. I want
to talk to you about all things concerning Middle East.
So we have the President meeting with King of Dalla
today of the King of Jordan at the White House.
It'll be a closed meeting. There will be no joint
news conference after. Is he talking about owning the Gaza Strip.

(02:02):
There's been very little clarity as to whether or not.
I don't know why the President can't make a crystal
clear that we need the Palestinians held in Saudi Arabia
and Jordan until we can repair the Gaza and then
they can return home. That hasn't been clear. And then
the ultimatum all hostages released by Saturday at noon or
all hell's going to break loose. Let's start with the
King of Jordan. What do you think the talks are

(02:24):
about today or need to be well, the King of Jordan.

Speaker 4 (02:29):
Often comes to the United States and it meets with
all senior officials, so he is he is like the
the decision maker in Jordan.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
And as you know Jordan, half of Jordan.

Speaker 4 (02:44):
Is actually Palestinian refugees, right, And it's a very difficult
country to run when half your country is really not
even citizens and you are a sandwich between Iraq, Iran, Syria, Lebanon,
and Israel. It is really the Keystone state and destabilized Jordan.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
No, that is a horrible thing. That's the last thing
we want.

Speaker 4 (03:11):
So the United States has always been kind of invested
in in the stability of the Jordans and and the
and the king who is really I think uh really
cares about his people and his his whole things just
keep this thing wired together. So I assume those would
be incredibly serious discussions.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
What what Trump?

Speaker 4 (03:32):
You know, the way I interpreted the whole kind of
Trump thing about is you people are out of your
freaking minds. If you think that we're just going to
go back let himas get back in control, pour money
in with Unra like we did before and October every
seven never happened, and just revisit this horror show again.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
You're out of your freaking minds.

Speaker 4 (03:56):
Now, maybe I don't have the best idea in the world,
but I'm going to start throw an idea out there.
Unless somebody comes up with something better. You know, we're
going to have a miserable life here. So I think
it's the beginning of a negotiating process. And right now
I'm just kind of waiting to see how it all
plays out.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Yeah, and it's hard to speculate and no for sure,
but I mean we can kind of look back and say,
I don't think it was about Canada being a fifty
first date as much as hey help us out at
the border, help yourself out with drugs coming into your country,
and help both of us out with terrorists that can
like to really come through your border. Same was true
for Mexico with ten thousand troops that'll be sent to
the border. I don't think he was really after Panama

(04:33):
or invading Panama. I noticed now we don't have any
shipping fees going through the Panama Canal. So if that's
the motive, and this is a negotiation, it could be
brilliant in that you get Saudi Arabian others to rebuild
Palestine and then you get them all to look after it,
so that radical Islamis with terror on the offensive, jihattist
Islamis don't ever get back in control. That could be genius. Really,

(04:57):
actually the US owning it. I don't know if that's genius.
I wouldn't think so that's it. That's the expert teacher. No.

Speaker 4 (05:09):
I mean, I have two words for you, Coobar Towers, right,
which was the US base in Lebanon the cup bombed
by the terrorists. I mean, the whole the United States
wants a stable Middle East, and I don't think you
achieved that by the United States putting up a big
red flag in the middle of the Middle East and

(05:31):
saying kick me right because somebody, because some Yahoo's gonna kick.

Speaker 5 (05:36):
You and.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
The other thing is is in the end, it's their region.

Speaker 4 (05:44):
There's only gonna be peace and stability and prosperity in
that region when those countries get together and they say, Aran, dude,
you back off, and they don't tolerate extremism in their
own neighborhood.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
It's just that this is gonna sound so vanilla and
so cheesy talk show host, but it's true. You know,
we talk about Iran. Iran is the most predictable problem
for the world. So it's the world's problem to solve.
All of radical Islam. She hottest Islam, who doesn't see
Israel's right to exist, doesn't see America's right to exist.

(06:18):
Quite frankly, wants to rule the world, followed by Allah
returning is a problem to the world, and it's the
world's problem to solve. I like that this discussion is
starting to involve the world, including Muslim nations, to help
solve this problem that much.

Speaker 4 (06:34):
I like, can I yeah, can I have hoold something
for a second, because sure, I don't think people really
focused on counter terrorism has come back.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
I think is an important issue for.

Speaker 4 (06:43):
The United States, and I think this administration they're instincts
of it, right is it's not to do the extremes,
which is under you know, Obama and Biden and Clinton.
It's just pretend it's not there. And to talk about
it is Islamophobia and you know racist, right, and then
and then you get attacked. And I also think the
Bush strategy really kind of well, we have to eliminate

(07:06):
all the root causes of terrorism and reform the Muslim religion.
And you know that's not gonna work either. So so
for the US, for the US right, dealing with global
terrorism is like mowing the lawn. These guys they lift
their heads out of the bunker, you kill them, right.
So I'll give you a perfect example. The guys went

(07:27):
in the White House. The first thing he has got
brief they say, well, we've been tracking these terrorists in
Somali for a year and a half now, and they're
like tracking them, why don't you just kill them? And
they go, well, the Biden guys will let us do that.
So they're like, you're serious, right, So for the president,
they say, hey, there's terrorists Somalia they want to kill
us there, and presidents go kill them. And so that

(07:47):
was a Thursday Friday morning.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
They killed them. Done, so I think that's the US strategy.
The US strategy is mowing the law. But and this
is the big butt.

Speaker 4 (07:57):
If you want to address the reason why people are
killing people in your country while the Sahala is the hell,
while we see the return of the Muslim Brotherhood and
these other groups and stuff, that's your problem and you
need your solutions, and that's not my problem. I'm gonna
mow the grass.

Speaker 6 (08:15):
Right.

Speaker 4 (08:16):
You got to decide what you want, how you want
to run your countries. If you want these problems to go, wait,
you got to take it.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
But if you pull a Mexico Canada, you pull a Panama,
and you get Saudi Arabia to fund the rebuilding of Palestine,
now they got skin in the game. Money in the game,
Muslims will keep radical Muslims forever taking control and starting
trouble against Sir. I think that would be a brilliant strategy.
But I mean, what do I know. I'm just a
talk show host.

Speaker 4 (08:41):
I talked to very senior people in Panama yesterday and
they're like, message receipts. The idea that China can control
the Panama Canal is unacceptable. Thank you, We got that message. Okay, Now,
We're going to figure how to fix that problem.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
But we got it. Closing moments of Lieutenant Colonel James Carafano.
All right, Saturday at noon, every hostage, Now, these latest
hossages didn't look very well. Maybe out of living hostages. Uh,
and then credibility. So you're not gonna make the mistake
Obama made with the red line in the sand. I mean,
if you're saying all hell's going to break loose, all
hell better break loose. What do we define as all

(09:20):
hell breaking loose? I? Well, I think the Israelis will,
you know, go back in and start killing people again.
So I guess what that means. Do you think there
are hostages to be released Saturday by noon? I don't know.

Speaker 4 (09:36):
I'm my guests submit from talking to Israeli sources, and
a few months ago is that we were talking in
the twenties and thirties of lies people.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
So how many? How many have been released? Now? A dozen?
Maybe running low.

Speaker 4 (09:50):
Tall together? I mean, so, I mean I think we're
talking living, living individuals is probably a pretty small number
at this point.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
All right, then that leaves the only order of business
is weather going to keep you from getting here? Because
I was really excited about seeing you tomorrow.

Speaker 7 (10:09):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
What are you thinking, man, I don't know. Okay, let
me guess it never stops you from leaving the country,
being halfway around the world to get away from me. Well,
you take a little risk and fight through, you know,
a little de ice, and you're on your way. I
know we'll put I think I've put in God's hands.
Who I was gonna say, don't do anything you're not
comfortable with. We cherish these visits. We don't want you

(10:32):
to go anywhere. But if you're here, I'll see you tomorrow.
If not, we'll talk again next week. Read his great
work and is Collies great work at Heritage dot org.
That is Lieutenant Colonel James Carafano with the very latest
on the President's meeting with King Abdullah today, what they
may discuss, and the can of woof that maybe opened
up Saturday at noon if a Moses not cooperating.

Speaker 7 (10:55):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chano.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
Hey Camp right now, I'm under the hood. Hey, I'm
under the hood. I threw the challenge flag and I'm
under the hook. What are you doing under the I'm ready,
I'm ready. After further review, Michael did say tear grass.
It would call stands as it was made. Thank you,

(11:21):
thank you. Apparently during my burner launcher commercial, I said
kinetic rounds and tear grass, not tear gas. We don't
throw grass at dangerous people. We shoot them with a
pellet that stuns them and releases tear gas. A mistake, Yes,
tear grass, Well, that's something Red may have smoked in college.

(11:49):
Couldn't it be a university fie if you're just waking up.
President Trump has said the whole talks with the King
of Jordan today. King Abdullah the Second will be at
the Light House today, the first Arab leader to visit
Trump in this second term. The meeting comes after the
President floated a controversial proposal about owning the Gaza Strip
and resettling Palestinians living in the occupied territory in the

(12:12):
neighboring Jordan and Egypt. The idea has already been rejected
by King Abdullah, but Trump is now doubling down, threatening
to withhold a that might get his attention. Could have
something to do with the ultimatum the president also gave.
President says, if every hostage is not released from Gaza
by Saturday at noon. Not the bike racks. All hell

(12:34):
is going to break loose.

Speaker 8 (12:34):
Where's going to meet the commerce in the oval offors Monday,
Saturday at twelve o'clock, and after that it's going to
be a different ball again. Trump said he would recommend
the ceasefireingplace since January should be canceled if all Israeli
hostages were not released by noon on Saturday, after the
Palestinian Militant Group's terrible threat earlier Monday to postpone any

(12:57):
further hostage prisoner exchanges.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
I'm Mark nyphe Am. I the only one that thinks
that Pete Hegseth looks the most presidential. I'm telling you
a guy who's going to be a president someday. He
looks it. I can feel it right now. He's just
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth directing the military to put a
pause on the recruitment of new transgendered individuals. Lisa Taylor
has more.

Speaker 6 (13:16):
Meg Seth is also ordering a suspension of plan procedures
for current service members with gender dysphoria. It comes along
with President Trump's executive order that essentially bans trans military service.
Eg Seth wrote in a memorandum for senior Pentagon leadership.
Efforts to split our troops along the lines of identity
weaken our force and make us vulnerable, I said Taylor.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
Also today, a new Gallup poll released show's support for
transgendered individuals serving in the military is down from seventy
one to sixty one percent. And that was from twenty
nineteen to twenty twenty one. Imagine what the data might
look like in twenty two, twenty three, twenty four, and
twenty five. Meanwhile, President Trump is granting a full pardon.
This is just destroying the left's narrative. After all, Donald

(13:59):
Trump was the boogey and if you elected him, say
goodbye to the soul of America, saygabye to democracy. And
he's going to get revenge against its political enemies. Well,
he's ordered the Justice Department to drop all charges against
Democrat New York City Mayor Eric Adams, and now a
full pardon for Democrat Illinois former Governor Rod Blogoyevitch.

Speaker 5 (14:19):
The pardon announced Monday comes nearly five years after Trump
commuted the former governor's prison sentence.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
It's my honor to do it. I've watched him.

Speaker 5 (14:27):
He was set up by a lot of bad people,
some of the same people that I had to deal with.
Lagoyevitch was released from federal custody in twenty twenty after
serving eight years for federal corruption charges, including trying to
sell Barack Obama's former US Senate seat. I'm Tammy Trhueo.

Speaker 1 (14:45):
Now that the Philadelphia Eagles have entered the Chiefs hopes
for a three peat, there's a lot of leftover Chiefs
merchandise for the Chiefs.

Speaker 9 (14:56):
Just one thing good is coming out of their forty
twenty two clothing printed up in advance for the losing
team is often donated. The NFL partners with a charity
called Good three sixty to send that march across the
country and abroad to people in need. In past years,
it's been sent to countries like Ukraine, Mongolia, Georgia, Estonia,

(15:17):
and Latvia. I'm Michael Kassner.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
Starting today, New York City Subway System is going to
have a little different look and sound as we get
ready to celebrate Saturday Night Lives fiftieth anniversary.

Speaker 10 (15:26):
The MTA says through Sunday, announcements recorded by cast member
Keenan Thompson will be played in more than four hundred
subway stations.

Speaker 11 (15:34):
Do pay the fare.

Speaker 1 (15:36):
I see you trying to jump the terristiles. Stop it
right now. I'm serious. Don't subway surf. I can't believe
I have to even say this.

Speaker 10 (15:44):
In addition, large wall scapes, turnstiles, and signage celebrating SNL
fifty can be seen throughout the Rockefeller Center station. Through
February twenty third, you can catch the live three hour
SNL fifty. The anniversary special is coming Sunday on NBC
and Peacock Kristin marks NBC News Radio, New York.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
Well, let's hope the specials funnier than those announcements. The
Whiz lost to the Spurs by ten calves over the
Wolves one twenty eight one oh seven. Warriors beat the Bucks,
thunder up the Pels by thirty six. They were in
it right up to the tip off. Kings by one
over the Maps. Blazers lost the Nuggets by twenty nine.
Lakers win easy, won thirty two, one thirteen over the Jazz.
No NHL hockey as we're having our four nation face

(16:23):
off us, Canada, Sweden, and Finland. Those games will be
played through the weekend in Montreal. And Boston.

Speaker 8 (16:31):
Hey, this is Top Cop Kathy Hinters, and my morning
show is your Morning Show with Michael Dale jornou.

Speaker 11 (16:43):
Hi.

Speaker 1 (16:43):
It's me Michael.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
Your Morning show can be heard live daily on great
radio stations like News Radio six fifty, k e NI Anchorage, Alaska,
Talk Radio eleven ninety Dallas Fort Worth, and Freedom one
oh four to seven in Washington, d C. We'd love
to have you listen live every day and make us
a part of your morning routine, but better late than never.
Enjoy the podcast. Burner Launcher has powerful deterrence, like tear grass.

(17:07):
See now, you're just being a jerk.

Speaker 1 (17:11):
I already admitted after further review, the plane calls a stand.
I said tear grass instead of tear gas. I admit,
you know what. I'm glad I did it. I'm glad
we brought this much attention to the burn A Launcher.
I don't apologize for it. By the way, if you
want to get that ten percent coupon, we changed the
promo code so now you go to bern A BYRNA

(17:31):
slash yms so you don't have to worry about spelling.
Del Jordan. Apparently everybody was misspelling my last name. You
know how they love me. I'm just looking over flu stats.
At least twenty four million cases and thirteen thousand deaths
have been reported since October from the CDC. Obviously, somebody

(17:52):
say it out loud that flu vaccine must not have
been very comprehensive the right mixture. I will say this,
I was glad I got it first, Like you know
how that works in your family, Like a bad bug
goes through the house, and when you're last, you just
know what's coming, know it's coming. Then all of a sudden,
you know, you get a first symptom. You're like, ah, great,

(18:15):
I'm ne at least when I got it first, it's over.
I feel bad for all the rest of you that
might still get this flu of me is a really
bad month, but it's behind me and everybody. I'm not joking.

Speaker 5 (18:27):
I don't think we should be taking the advice from
a group of people who can't define what a woman is.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
That was just complete, you know, for those of you
that thought all the idiocy was behind us. Now that
Biden and Kamala are gone, no others have stepped up
in their place, It's time for Sounds of the Day
thirty seven minutes after the hour, Let's start with Mark Helprin. Now,
Mark helpern was with what ABC first? I think, then

(18:56):
NBC Showtime? Was it CNN or MSNBC? I can't remember.
He was a bunch of me. Just both both bounced
around and bounced around. So if anybody wants to talk
about the mainstream media, he'd be the one to talk
about it. Right. This is an ongoing theme that we
have discussed. The Democrats are in complete obstruction mode. That

(19:20):
may have been the play in twenty sixteen, but it's
a bad play in twenty twenty five because the American
people are behind the president, think he's only doing what
he promised to doing what they elected him to do,
and they support what he's doing. So Mark's making the
case that he is speechless over the speed and depth
of Trump's unique second term, the speed in which he's

(19:41):
getting things done, and how the mainstream media and the
Democrats can't keep up and don't know what position to take,
message to speak and messenger to speak at Listen. I'm
baffled and somewhat speechless.

Speaker 12 (19:59):
I've been thinking in the last couple of days, is
there anything in my career as a journalist that I've
covered that, i'd compared to this, and the answer is no.
I've covered, you know, presidential campaigns, Government's Oklahoma City bombing,
O J. Simpson trial, I've covered lots of big, you know,
complex stories. I find this to be extraordinary and singular.

(20:22):
I think that we're covering and talking about a very
small percentage of what's actually happening. And I think for
the reasons I've discussed at length in my writing and
on two Way, this is a unique presidency for so
many reasons, and we're seeing the manifestation of that now.

(20:42):
It's it's in some ways like a first term presidency.
He's coming in starting this term with much more energy, momentum, newness,
and arrested staff. So he's different and America is different.
We've talked about that a lot. That's not like a
second term president, right you think about the first weeks

(21:03):
of the second term of Clinton, Bush and Obama. It's
nothing like this for obvious reasons. But it's also is
the second term presidency in the sense that he's he's experienced,
he knows more about how to do the job and
what he wants, and he also had four years off
when he wasn't sitting in courtrooms or being shot at.

(21:24):
He had a lot of time to think about how
he wanted to do this job, and how to enact
a revolution, and and and you know, the theater of
it and the personality and the and the historical narrative
arc are all of course super compelling. But what matters
is the real lives of real people and the impact

(21:44):
this is going to have on not just American government
and the world, but American history. And I think on
that score, based on the you know, the early returns
here after a couple of weeks, this turns the Reagan
Revolution into a joke. That's a powerful statement. So statement
of problem. This guy's different, America is different. The speed

(22:09):
in which he's getting things done is going to make
the Reagan Revolution look like a joke. He gets two
first one hundred days, and he's taking advantage of him.
Now nowhere in that clip does he have an answer.
So the Left doesn't know what to do. I think

(22:31):
it'd be pretty simple, be like Fetterman, don't be an obstructionist.
You're obstructing the will of the American people, not Donald Trump.
This is in twenty sixteen.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
You know, draw your line in the sand so that
you still represent something, but you can't fight, and you
certainly can't have protest and obstructionist rallies calling for violence
in the street.

Speaker 13 (23:00):
This will be a congressional fight, a constitutional fight, a
legal fight, and on days like this, a street fight.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
Yes, we will say that is a representative from Maryland.
You know because when you ask the question, right, what's
their endgame? They didn't get the election and they lost big,
They don't get the American people today, and they continue
to obstruct. What is their endgame? The good trouble of

(23:33):
rioting in the streets is that where they're really going
to play this. If they're dumb enough to be obstructionists,
are they dumb enough to be insurrectionists? Next? Let me
give you a couple more seconds to think about that.
You know why, because I think they're that dumb. Here's

(23:56):
how Maxine started leading her anti Musk charge in a rally.

Speaker 14 (24:02):
Wow wow, wow, look at this crowd elon Musk. Where
are you bring your ass of a hair so you
can say who's here and what we're doing. We're not
afraid of you. We know that you are the cole president.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
Now that that narrative is so you know, if there's
two realities that Democrats need to get and I don't
like to play right versus left, I just played right
versus wrong. But this is so stupid. If there's one
certainty in America, whether you're left or right, it's that
Donald Trump is in charge. The question for the previous

(24:43):
four years that we still don't have answer is who
the hell was in charge. She should be saying, John Podesta,
get your you know what down here of.

Speaker 14 (24:51):
The United States of America. But ladies and gentlemen, I
want you to follow very closely what he's doing and
how he has done it. First of all, we're here
at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Speaker 6 (25:07):
What is it?

Speaker 1 (25:09):
This is so important. Prior to this being organized.

Speaker 14 (25:15):
In the did Frank reforms, consumers didn't have any place
to really foul complaints.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
They didn't have anywhere to go when.

Speaker 14 (25:24):
The biggest banks in America was ripping them off, the
student loans were being undermined.

Speaker 1 (25:30):
Could anybody use the talk back button tell me what
the heck she's talking about, because if that's a fear tactic,
there's no fear in any who even knows what the
textually talking about talking about them majoring in a minor
the obstruction card. They're still trying to play it. But
it's eight years later. It's a different Trump, it's a

(25:52):
different America. Well, they clearly don't know what message to have,
and they clearly don't have a messenger. Here's what Joe
Rogan had to say about all of this, and what
they've found so far is very enlightening, and it's not good.
It's not good at all. So anybody that's not commenting
on the hey, you know what, they are finding a
lot of unbelievable waste and corruption. Yeah, but also he

(26:14):
shouldn't be able to do that. Now. I'd love to
play a lot more Joe Rogan, but he never could
go more than twelve seconds without dropping an F bomb.
But he's addressing the obstruction of the left. Wall Street
Journal nailed it in an outbed piece. What the heck
are these people in a room thinking, we're going to

(26:34):
march on behalf of bureaucrats, We're going to stand up
for waste, keep that waist, keep that waste. What are
they thinking now? If Donald Trump, if Elon Musk, if
this administration has any issue getting their findings to the

(26:59):
America can people without it being distorted through a matrix
of what's left of a biased, dead journalistic media. Maybe
the place to go back to is Joe Rogan, also
looking very presidential as Marco Rubio, explaining what is waste
and then what is good? We want to get rid

(27:20):
of the bad and keep the good. Here's how he sounds.

Speaker 11 (27:24):
Things like, are people going to starve to death or
were going to have a famine? Is it going to
destabilize a country in a way that would be negative
to our national interests and open the door for radical
giadists or others to take advantage. We're going to continue
to do those but the problem is that the definition
of humanitarian has expanded beyond that, you know, to all
kinds of other things that do not make sense. That

(27:45):
doesn't mean they're bad ideas.

Speaker 1 (27:47):
Someone should do it, it.

Speaker 11 (27:48):
Just shouldn't be the American taxpayer. So that's the kind
of thing that we're going through right now and identifying.
And by the way, you know, we issued a waiver
which allowed all these life saving programs to continue, and obviously,
you know there's any time you have a pause or
some hiccups about how to restart the payment programs. But
all that's going to get taken care of you very quickly,
and those programs will continue. We're not walking away from

(28:10):
four and eight. We are walking away from four and eight.
That's dumb, that's stupid, that wastes American taxpayer money.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
We're just not going to continue to do those thin
so no waste, no corruption, still doing the good work
for mankind. You know these to always say there's two
kinds of Americans, those that love Neil Diamond those who don't. Now,
there's two kinds of Americans. Those that see the bureaucracy
as a problem, those that see the ridiculous money laundering

(28:38):
and misspending and want it gone because it makes sense
and because it's a misuse of taxair payer dollars. And
those who lost an election are trying to even the
score by playing an obstructionist card. I don't think I
even have to end this way, but I think time
will tell you who already lost and who will lose
again playing that same game.

Speaker 7 (28:58):
All right, everybody, look alone.

Speaker 1 (29:00):
I'm not joking. I don't think we should be taking
the advice from a Google people who can't define what
a woman is. That was just complete, not a local
for racial Yes, that's your Sounds of a Name.

Speaker 7 (29:16):
This is your Morning show with Michael del Chino.

Speaker 1 (29:21):
I think it's been a good show. A lot of energy,
this show, a lot of really good content the show.
But if you missed any of it, that's why we
have the podcast in the iHeartRadio app section. Just google
Michael del john or your Morning Show. By the way,
once you find a set, subscribe that way. It's waiting
for you. Every morning. President Trump set to hold talks
with the King of Jordan, Telsey Gabbert, a step closer

(29:41):
to becoming the next Director of National Intelligence. Tiger Woods,
whose mother passed away, is going to withdraw from his
own tournament in California to mourn her death. And with
Valentine's Day around the corner, what a better time to
get petty revenge on an X and do something good
at the same time.

Speaker 5 (29:56):
A number of zoos around the country are offering the
opportunity to something after an X, and that's something will
be fed to a zoo animal at the San Antonio Zoo,
for example, you can name a cockroach Broden, or even
a vegetable at the Lehigh Valley Zoo in Pennsylvania, you
can name a fish for feeding to a penguin, and
in Fort Worth, a donation will get you a pound
of poop to dedicate to an X What I'm Tammy trio.

Speaker 1 (30:19):
It's a real news story, all right. If that's Valentine's
Day revenge, which, by the way, I think you should
just move on dot Org Rory has the answer to
what what employer's worst fear is revenge quitting. I may
have revenge quit once, so, but let's get the definition.

(30:40):
It's on the rise, and the question is roy O'Neil?
What is it?

Speaker 13 (30:44):
Yeah, it's not so much the why when it comes
to revenge quitting, it's the how. So it's essentially walking
off the job or not giving two weeks notice, or
just saying, hey, I'm not coming in today.

Speaker 1 (30:54):
I quit.

Speaker 13 (30:56):
That's the kind of revenge quitting that we're seeing on
the rise. Typical quitting means you're going to give your
notice and your boss has time to make other arrangements.
But revenge quitting is sort of sticking it to the man.
I suppose we're seeing this in among younger workers, workers
who are in marketing, advertising, it and tech and media

(31:16):
and entertainment fields.

Speaker 1 (31:18):
I like to view our segments as a conversation, conversations
that usually lead to criticizing me. But no, I am
noticing something interesting, Rory, and that is watching my son.
And these are part time jobs. Obviously he's still in school.
But I have noticed that young people today, I don't
know that it's revenge, and my son's not one of them.

(31:38):
Like my son left one job and took another one
simply because it paid two more dollars an hour, quite frankly, right,
but you know, and the first thing he did was
text his boss give notice. He agreed to work out
the two weeks. They said, really, just work out through
the weekend and then you're fine to move on. And
he did that. But most people his age, they don't

(31:59):
do that. They just don't come back and go to
the new job. And that we've also noticed that some employers,
especially with these young workers, they just stop calling you
and putting you on the schedule rather than sitting you
down and telling you're fired. I'm just wondering if it's
a lot, if it's less revenge quitting on the rise
and more of a cultural shift in how we don't

(32:20):
communicate on the rise, right, I'd say that's a big
part of it.

Speaker 13 (32:24):
But I think as you go up the food chain
to the more experience, to the more middle management type.

Speaker 1 (32:29):
Oh yeah, that's not this job and shove it. Well,
but it's that.

Speaker 13 (32:32):
But also when they say hey, bos, they tell their boss, hey, look,
I found a new opportunity. I'm going to leave in
two weeks, and then they call HR and HR escort
them out of the building immediately, right right, Like that's
another whole component because they don't want you to spend
the next two weeks downloading company files and making copies
of stuff and everything else. They'll just say, thanks for
the two week notice, but you're done right now. So

(32:56):
bottom line is, do we have a problem. Have things
gotten less respectful both by employers and employees?

Speaker 1 (33:06):
Well, I would say it goes back to that communication
issue as well.

Speaker 13 (33:09):
I mean, how many young I'll talk to my nieces
or friends and their kids will say that, you know,
they get a text about when to show up at
work or their schedule or things like that. You're saying
a text, what kind of a way is that to
communicate that kind of information. So a lot of this
stuff is no longer face to face, which I think
makes it easier to quiet quit.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
You know, it's interesting whether fired. And I remember when
I got fired by a bank when I was a teenager.
I really didn't care because I was making way more
money serving subpoenas. But then later in radio, once I
got fired, you know, I left even though the circumstances
were bad, and if I dwelled down them, i'd be negative.
I left grateful for how they supported me or my

(33:52):
family through a period of time, and you just kind
of move on, and I'm kind of like, move on,
never think about them again. But yeah, this whole revenge thing,
I don't know. I feel the same way when I
quit too. Hey, thank you for the window of my
life you provided. This no longer makes sense for me
if it makes sense for you. But you know, you always,

(34:12):
you know you want to closure and you want to leave, right,
That's a part of character. I hope we get this
right in America because I.

Speaker 13 (34:20):
Don't like this at all, because companies don't do the
same HR tell me about your last job. They don't
do background checks like they used to to really get
that recommendation from your previous employer. A lot of HR
doesn't allow that they'll only confirm the dates who were there,
not necessarily what your performance was.

Speaker 1 (34:36):
Good story where we'll talk again tomorrow. That's really kind
of more abrupt quitting than revenge quitting. That'll do it
for us today. I don't know time flew. We must
have had fun. We'll be back tomorrow. Don't forget one
chance to live this day.

Speaker 7 (34:48):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
